Inside the box, you’ll find a quick installation guide, a 12V-2×6 to 2x PCIe 8pin adapter, and the graphics card itself.
A Closer Look
The card is labelled NVIDIA SFF-ready, which means it should fit in most compact cases and small form factor chassis. It has a height of 120mm and a total length of 290mm, and only uses up to 2 PCIE slots space with a thickness of only 50mm.
Aesthetically, it looks great with an all-white design and a subtle RGB LED strip running along the top of the graphics card.
According to Nvidia, the GeForce RTX 5070 has a total graphics power (TGP) is around 250W, with a recommended minimum power of 650W or higher. But we suggest you get a 750W, 850W or higher for future expansion.
For cooling, it comes with Gigabyte’s WINDFORCE cooling system, which includes three Hawk fans that reduces air resistance and noise levels. It also comes with a reinforced metal backplate, a Copper plate and a Copper composite heatpipe, along with Server-grade Thermal conductive gel.
The 16-pin 12VHPWR / PCIE 5.0 power connector is located on the center of the graphics card. Video outputs include 3 x DisplayPort 2.1b and 1 x HDMI 2.1b, allowing you to display up to 4K @ 480Hz and 8K @ 165Hz with DSC.
Installation
We didn’t encounter any issues during our installation. For our tests, we used our usual test rig which consists of a Gigabyte B860 AORUS Elite WiFi7 ICE motherboard , along with an Intel Core Ultra 9 285K processor @ default clock speed, as well as 48GB of Viper Gaming Extreme 5 DDR5-8000 ram.
The package includes a 2 x 8-pin PCIE to 16-pin 12VHPWR adapter with the package. Important word of advice. Make sure the 12VHPWR cable is SECURELY connected to the graphics card. Failing to do so will cause major issues/damage to the card.
